application design.
This has already been happening in the latest releases of Firefox and
Safari. Both of which have been focusing a lot on performance along
with everything else. I'm certainly curious to see where Google will
match up, but the other browser companies have certainly been
concerned with performance.
I've always held this tenet that UI responsiveness affects how the
user
feels about a given application the most out of any other factor.
And most
UI speed problems can be tied to performance. If Google can deliver
the
performance gains they're talking about, the Web could evolve into a
platform for first class applications.
Even if Google doesn't, I'd expect you'll see other browser companies
continue to focus on performance as well.
